Amazon.com: LEGO City Undercover – Nintendo Switch : Whv Games: Everything Else

After I finished Mario Odyssey and Zelda Breath Of The Wild, I was bummed because I didn’t know of any other open-world games for the Nntendo Switch. I saw this game recommended and, although I’ve never played a Lego game, I decided to give it a try. It exceeded all my expectations. The game has a huge open world and you are free to explore and find little side tasks to do all over the place. You can, of course, follow the main story and go through the various levels in the game, but you are by no means forced to do that. There’s plenty of other stuff to do freeform on your own.

I’ve seen this game described as a G-rated, family-friendly version of Grand Theft Auto and I’d agree. The game is clearly designed so kids can play, but it’s just as fun for adults. Having never played a Lego game, I was surprised that the humor and the voice-acting were all quite good, and overall the game is really polished and has a lot of layers to it. There is attention to detail and a lot of stuff to do – it feels like a big, substantial game. People complain about the load times, and they are definitely longer than most games, but they aren’t that bad – the loading screens certainly don’t detract from an otherwise stellar game. If you, like me, enjoyed the exploration and freedom of Mario Odyssey and Zelda BOTW, I would put this game next on your list.
